Howdy, Question for those more versed in IPv6 than I: Is there any harm from dropping ICMPv6 multicast listener discovery reports in a network which does NOT use any multicast routing (i.e. only uses multicast which stays within the local link). I see a LOT of idle node chatter in the form of these reports which, of course, flood every station since they are themselves multicast. As far as I can tell they are used only to tell a multicast router whether to repeat a particular set of multicast packets to the instant link. Which in my network is -never- because there are no routed multicast packets to be repeated.
